More than a dozen Montgomery County elected officials gathered in front of the steps of the County Council building Monday to unite in calling for stricter gun laws, adding to the chorus of those crying out for action in the wake of the Parkland, Florida school shooting which claimed the lives of 17 people last month. The event was organized in part by Student Member of the Board of Education Matthew Post. The Sherwood HS senior had sought to bring together politicians and public officials from across the county to call on Congress to “do something” about guns.

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
